Default How Cool is THIS ???

Recently, I received a message from Rob, who's business is "TapeWorks Graphics, Stripe - It - All". He had seen our '17 GS picture in another thread talking about Rim Stripes and how happy I was with their easy to use, high quality product. Rob wanted to use a pic of our car in some upcoming newsletter or ad material and I was happy to help out..... I sent him several different pics to choose from. Here's one he used for a decal.

Just got this from him..........

That is fantastic to have your car featured and recognized like that for a business ad. Might add your Vette looks great.

Btw....Did I read that you also did the stripe on the roof? The '19 GS I have on order is a near twin of yours except for a black interior and calipers vs red. It'll have the carbon flash stinger on the hood but I've been thinking about adding the stripe to the roof. If you did the roof, can you share where you got the materials?

Jim,

We ordered the car that way......... with the carbon flash stripes on it. The option was called "Grand Sport Carbon Flash Center Stripes"..... it is order code: DNE $995. It goes down the back hatch too......;

That’s great to be featured. I’ve used their product also and was surprised how well my wheels turned out.
